Higher-order basis functions are commonly used for discretization of surface integral equations, which are typically solved by the Method of Moments (MoM). This leads to higher accuracy and lower memory requirements when compared to a simple piecewise linear discretization, e.g.,…

The design and analysis of printed reflectarrays with irregularly positioned array elements is presented. An accurate and efficient power pattern synthesis procedure, based on the Local Periodicity approach (LP) and the minimax optimization algorithm has been implemented. The analysis accuracy…

This paper presents an overview of selected new modelling algorithms and capabilities in commercial software tools developed by TICRA. A major new area is design and analysis of printed reflectarrays where a fully integrated design environment is under development, allowing…

This paper presents an overview of the last developments in the Electromagnetic Data Exchange (EDX). The EDX is a core activity of the EAML team in collaboration with the Working Group on Software of the European Association on Antennas and…

In this paper, we apply a recently developed 3D source reconstruction algorithm to perform antenna diagnostics on a planar array configuration. The test case is a planar X-band slot array measured in a spherical near-field facility and two slots were…
